People like you would go after pennies in the name of downplaying the debt. There are bigger fish to fry in the budget than not having universal healthcare. Let’s look at the oil subsidies, telecom subsidies, in fact give every single one a good glance over. I’m certain we can save enough billions to pay for healthcare multiple times over.
Yeah, Zohran Mamdani should focus on balancing the books before he opens the government communism store.
Oh, he did? And he fixed the potholes? And did it quicker using the machines of the government rather than corporate bureaucracy? And he wants me to earn more money each year, pay less to live, and cares about me as a person?
Well, all that sounds great in theory, but this billionaire said that we still need to pay off our debts, and billionaires know a thing or two about money!
They know about exploitation to get money, not making it. No one earns a billion dollars, they exploit workers and the stock market to get that wealth. In fact, they wouldn’t know anything about money because they don’t have loads of money, it’s all wealth in various assets that they have accountants shift around, appreciate, depreciate, take loans on, etc.
Well if that’s true, then why do I base me entire personality on talking about how smart billionaires are and misquoting them?! Checkmate, people who understand that therapy only works if you’re willing to speak honestly and listen earnestly!
Maybe stop paying $1.5 trillion dollars to the military industrial complex serving Israel, Wall St, military contractors and big oil.
And maybe stop giving the rich tax breaks on generational wealth and capital gains.
We only need a homeland defense force. That’s it. $100-150 billion a year is plenty. If we stopped the disgusting amount of military spending, we could have modern safety nets just like Europe.
Universal healthcare is pretty cheap compared to all the money we’ve been hemorrhaging on wars, support to countries like Israel, tax cuts… hell, all of this is small potatoes compared to the economic destruction that’s been done with these tarriffs.
We could have good healthcare for everyone for far less money than has been spent fighting with Iran this year.
Also, the USA can still afford all this and more because we are the richest society in history. Let’s keep some perspective. Even with all the crazy bullshit that’s happened in the last few years, we’ve never actually been lacking for money. It just gets prioritized into stupid shit.
There’s enough money in this country to pay for everything we want, and still have lower taxes than Europe. We just have to stop letting hoarders control the money.
How about we figure out how to pay down our debt and then we can attack healthcare
US military spending is higher than the next 9 countries combined.
Cut it in half, it’d still be the largest in the world and we could fund just about anything we can imagine.

We can walk and chew gum.
Can we?
We have to really.
Or disaster will force it, one way or another
Don’t get me wrong I’d love universal health care but you also can guess disaster will have to force
